With the fixture list being wiped out this term due to the pandemic, there was even greater anticipation than normal over the annual House Matches being played.

The Junior House Cup was contested by Forms 2 and 3 and the Senior House Cup contested by Forms 4, 5 and 6 with House Teams playing for each year group. In Form 2 all the children took part in a hockey match, while in Forms 3 to 6, the children either played hockey or rugby; depending on which sport they had chosen to play this term. The results across year groups were combined to decide the winner of the cup.

As the only fixture that the children could play this term, the excitement had been building over a few weeks. Once the whistle went and the matches started, all teams displayed great passion and determination for their House in the way they played. The only ingredient missing being the cheers of the crowd, to spur each team on further.

With the final whistle blown, and all the scores tallied, the winners were pronounced in final end of term assembly.
